Rejected petition: Ban fireworks for the general public (limited to licensed events only.)

Rejected on

i want parliament to debate this topic and consider making a new bill (law) restricting the public from going out and buying fireworks from any local shop and also banning shops and employers from selling fireworks.

This petition is about banning the general public’s access to fireworks. Fireworks should only be avaliable to licensed events which are safe and under supervision. Fireworks should be banned from being sold in shops to stop the public from buying and exploiting these explosives to hurt animals
